Default Re: Weird preflop spot against weird player.

I can't call for set value, and I think he fires pretty often on the flop.... So if I'm calling preflop I have to be willing to probably call one barrel on any non-ace flop with only one overcard.

This means we can get into a lot of trouble postflop - e.g. if he bets a Jxx flop, the turn goes check-check, then there is a good chance he might seize on my weakness, and blow me off the best hand. Alternatively, the flop might come AJx and I fold the best hand.

If I call, the pot gets very big. However, I will be making a mistake postflop very often, either by calling with the worst hand or folding the best hand. E.g. I'm definitely going to make very expensive mistakes postflop if I call.

Anyway, I was so confused that I timed out [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] So unfortunately we can't analyse postflop.
